I liked the idea from another thread about a plus/minus poll and I want to try a poll in a fairly small scale. If it turns out to be fun and works well we can do it again in a larger scale with adjusted rules as necessary.
The poll I'm suggesting is a bit different to that other site's plus/minus poll that was mentioned, where a fixed set of artists had 15 points each from the beginning.
Here's what I suggest:
The poll has two stages.
In stage 1 you have one chance per day to vote for or against three different artists.
Options in stage 1:
1. Give one point to a new artist in the game
2. Add one point to an artist already in the game
3. Subtract one point for an artist already in the game
You can mix the three options as you like. For example give points to two new artists and subtract one point to an artist in the game. You can not add or subtract two or three points to the same artist.
Stage 1 ends when we have 30 artists with a positive score.
In stage 2 you have one chance per day to vote against one of the 20 remaining artists. The first of the 30 artists that get to 0 points will be #30 of the poll, the next will be #29 and so on.
Important: To make this work you always need to update the score table. Sort the table by the new scores and show your own scores within parentheses.
Example:
Justin Bieber 4 (+1)
Bob Dylan 3
Miles Davis 2 (-1)
Wire 1 (+1)
.
.
.
Ok, I'll start then. Since there are no artists in the game yet, I'm obviously giving points to three new artists.

Joint 28th place: Sonic Youth and Tom Waits
30th place: The Beatles
Big casualties (people who are high in AM and aren't in this top 30):
4th - David Bowie
8th - The Who
11th - Jimi Hendrix
14th - Marvin Gaye
15th - R.E.M.
16th - The Clash
17th - U2
19th - Nirvana
20th - Stevie Wonder
The plan was to only subtract artists (and only one artist per vote) at stage 2. However, that might seem a little abrupt so maybe we should continue to give additional points. Let me know what you think.
Anyway, I think artists with zero points should be considered "dead".

If the goal is to get folks to listen to Mi Ami, then this format appears to work especially well. This play also played out so that if you didn't get to vote in the first 7 hours, it was too late to add a new artist.
I find the results so far to be especially amusing and don't think that any other method for conducting the poll is definitively superior - especially for Mi Ami fans.
On the other hand the exclusion of the artists listed above and the relative placement of Bjork to the Beatles does indicate that this type of polling is probably more for grins and giggles than generating data that provides some measure of a consensus of AM participants. If such a measure is the goal, it might be worthwhile to provide a week or so for folks to participate and then start the second round with the top 30 after the established deadline to determine the final ranking of the top 30.
I just noticed now also: there's no Prince!
The abruptness of the ending of round 1 caught me by surprise. If you want to proceed with the original plan of only one minus vote per person in round two, my minus vote should apply to Tom Waits and not Sonic Youth.
Blame Moonbeam for that
Let's continue with three votes (plus and/or minus) until the end of this week.
To Henry and everyone:
That would be a good thing! I made that choice based on what I've been listening to lately... I'll be interested to see how this plays out (amongst some clear "dinosaurs" no less).
To Henry and everyone:
It's been fun so far. I'm sure that the adjusted rules, if needed, will make the next trial enjoyable as well.

As far as tweaking the voting rules...what about the following setup: The initial poster seeds the list with 3 artists (presuming 3 +1 votes), but thereafter, no more than one artist could be added per voter. That would force people to express an opinion on the existing list rather than just add their 3 favorites (which quickly expands the list to 30 before too many people get a chance to vote). However, artists that drop to 0 are not considered off the list, and may be "resurrected" with a +1 vote (or, for that matter, killed even deader with a -1 vote).
Just a thought. Fun poll!

Greg Rumpff, as much as I would like to have Steely Dan in the game, we're now in stage two where new artists are no longer allowed. I think you also copied an older version of the list where e.g. Bruce has 2 points instead of 3. Please make a new vote.
I would have added Steely Dan to the list as well, but the first round ended way too early for those of us on the West Coast of the USA.

#25 Aerosmith 0 (-1) - After one too many incidents of falling off the stage (in the immortal words of Linda Thompson, "Did he jump or was he pushed [by Joe Perry]?"), Steven Tyler retreated to the warm embrace of Hollywood as the newest, most head-scratching American Idol judge yet. It was quickly established that not a single contestant, or home viewer, could understand a word he was saying. Strangely, Randy Jackson seemed to understand evey single sentence and scat that emitted from those grand lips. As ratings continued to drop, Simon Fuller was left with no choice. Simon Cowell made his grand return by brutally murdering Tyler on live TV, snearing, "You have no talent, no charisma, and you'll never make it in the music business." At the funeral, Joe Perry shook his head, muttered, "this has been coming for 40 years," picked up his guitar case, and walked away, never to be seen again. Brad Whitford, Joey Kramer, and whoever that other guy is were so distraught, they jumped into the open grave to be with Tyler for eternity.

Are we all using AM time to determine the 24-hour periods between votes?
I'm guessing by Zorg's second contribution at 12.01AM forum time that that's a yes, Moonbeam.

I know we're not doing this, but...
Elvis went down to the ghetto to help teach the kids there not to shoot each other, and to tell them there's a whole big world outside the ghetto, where you can walk down the street without getting shot. A man walked down the street and pulled a cigarette out of his pocket. Thinking it was a gun, he took a cyanide pill to spare himself the pain.
How are we handling race conditions here? If my post went through first, shouldn't yours be updated?

I was eager to get my vote in so I could go to sleep, safe in the knowledge that Talking Heads and Pavement weren't in the danger zone!
And also, I see a potential problem here, in that people are voting more artists up than they are voting them down. Eventually we're gonna have a couple of artists with a zillion votes and it's gonna be impossible to take them down to 0 again.

I was going to vote last night too, to get rid of Aerosmith, but I thought I'd sleep on it. By the time I came back on the forum they were gone anyway!

Another thought on tweaking the scoring method... I think you should only be able to +1 an artist once. This would be entirely up to participants to police themselves, but that's ok. Also, it could create some interesting endgames where with 4 or 5 artists left, you end up voting off your favorite because you have already +1'ed everyone left in the list.

What I've been thinking is this:
first double all the scores, i.e.
The Smiths 14
Bob Dylan 14
Bruce Springsteen 12
The Velvet Underground 10
Pixies 8
The Kinks 8
Sly and the Family Stone 8
Talking Heads 6
The Cure 6
Pavement 4
Then change the weighting of the marks, so instead of it being +1/-1 you make it +2/-3. This way, voting down a band is more powerful than voting a band up.
Or, you could make it so you can only give 1 +1 per vote, and the other two have to be -1. That way, the total number of points in the contest will decrease with every vote.
